The Jesus Training Manual ~ Richard Mull

Mull teaches the reader some practical uses for the lessons Jesus taught His disciples about the Kingdom, spiritual authority, and operating in the supernatural.

What happens when you look into the box where you think God is contained and you find He isn’t there? What happens next may surprise you! You will learn how to hear God’s voice, that God still does miracles, that demons are real and how to deal with them, and truths about the Kingdom of God, healing, your spiritual authority, spiritual battles, and your armor.Written by a former traditional Baptist pastor, Mull’s unique story is one of God destroying religious constraints, allowing His people to reel in miracles of healing, salvations, and supernatural experiences in the presence of God. His journey will help you overcome skepticism, toss away theological hang–ups you once thought were from God, and stand solidly on biblical principles. This book is filled with amazing real–life stories and practical applications of the same things Jesus taught His 12 disciples. You will be challenged to believe God is able to do more than you have ever imagined!

My take on this book:

The Jesus Training Manual is truly a motivational book for anyone looking grow their faith, especially anyone who wants a personal relationship with the God that we read about in the Bible! Richard Mull shares this book in two segments with the first part of the book being his own personal story, and that probably was one of my favorite parts of the book because it is told in such a down to earth way. Sometimes humorous but those life lessons that he shares sort of opened my eyes to what is going on in my own life. The second half of the book deals with Biblical foundations and really steers the user to various parts of the Bible depending on the chapter and provides plenty of scripture reference. I love that each chapter has in depth study questions that allowed for personal reflection and growth while also providing scriptural questions that had me digging into my Bible. Mr. Mull hits on so many relevant topics and but some of the most significant for me was spiritual armor and our spiritual authority. There are several blank pages at the end for study notes which enhanced the book for me. A book that could easily be incorporated into a group study but also perfect for individual use. It now has a permanent place on my shelf.
